Wait till they find out all their big trucks have transmissions.

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Wait.. Are you telling me they WEREN'T born with those balls under the tailgate?

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Man, say what you will about truck culture, and I’ll probably agree, but I fuckin’ love truck nuts. I don’t know why, I don’t think it’s just immaturity because bodily humor isn’t usually my thing. But something about truck nuts makes me laugh.

I especially love that they trigger people enough that some places ban them.

[–] toomanypancakes@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm considering putting truck nuts on my fiat for exactly that reason. They're just goofy and ridiculous!

I had truck nuts on my Outback. They were bright pink.

I once saw neon pink truck nuts on a Prius. Peak comedy.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

I think truck nuts are tacky and stupid, but if you want them, I don't see why my opinion should matter. Now, if they were big enough that they were dragging down the street and making sparks, maybe they should be banned. I'd find that funnier than the normal style, too.

[–] Kickforce@lemmy.wtf 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

They trigger people? I thought they just served as some kind of label to certify a car is owned by a bit of an immature prick, like a Trump sticker.

I've never seen anyone triggered by them unless someone put them on their car without their consent. I'd be pretty annoyed if someone superglued that shit to my car.

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

As I understand it there have been a few towns over the years that have tried to ban them for pearl-clutchy reasons. “Oh think of the children!” or “how indecent!” type of thing.

Apparently they’re illegal in the entire state of Idaho.

And anything as harmless and silly as truck nuts that makes old uptight people lose their shit is something worth fighting for.

that’s for Big Balls Broccoli Top to decide

Combustion motors are more trans than EV's apparently.

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Most EVs have transmissions, they’re just usually single-speed. They have to adjust the RPM of the electric motor to a speed usable by the wheels.

Some have two-speed gearboxes, like the Porsche Taycan. This is needed because EV motors produce full torque at 0RPM and it stays there as the power increases, but eventually you reach a point where the power plateaus and the torque falls off. If you want more power at high speeds, you have to use a second gear.

This just in, Koeningsegg Regera sales up 10000% in red states!

(it doesn't have a transmission)

(an increase of 10000% over 0 is still 0)

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 21 hours ago

There are probably a few Texans that could afford it, but probably appear have the Hennessy scam car instead.

[–] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

I knew it! It's been the trans mission all along to create big auto and make us a car centric society. It's the trans fault! Come on Donny put a stop to the trans mission and ban all cars with a trans mission.
